Our writer has had the chance to play Sandia Golf Club and says it’s nothing short of spectacular.  That seems to be the tenor from you guys as well.

Designed by Scott Miller and opened in 2005, this course stretches all the way to 7,752 yards from the back tees.  That’s a long way, even if you’re playing at elevation. 

Typical of most modern designs, the green complexes here are just that, complex.  Large undulations have locals calling the greens “elephant burial grounds” because of all the humps and bumps.  If you’re playing this course for the first time, buying a yardage book is highly recommended.  If nothing else, you’ll be able closely examine the greens. 

The layout features a wonderful mix of holes that blend naturally with the landscape.  Even though the fairways are generous, they’re exposed.  And this is New Mexico, the wind blows.  Period. 

Golf is only part of the story here.  Other amenities include a casino, world class hotel, and ample dining options.
